MRI - Sacrum and Coccyx
MRI Sacrum and Coccyx is an advanced imaging test that provides detailed images of the sacrum and coccyx (tailbone), which form the lower part of the spine. It evaluates bones, joints, ligaments, nerves, and surrounding soft tissues.
This scan is highly effective in detecting fractures, inflammation, infections, tumors, nerve involvement, and degenerative changes in the sacral and coccygeal regions. It is particularly useful in patients with persistent lower back pain, trauma, or suspected nerve compression.
MRI offers excellent soft tissue contrast without the use of ionizing radiation, making it a safe and accurate diagnostic tool for assessing conditions affecting the lower spine.
The purpose of MRI Sacrum and Coccyx test is to evaluate the sacral and coccygeal regions of the spine.
- Detect fractures or trauma
- Identify inflammation or infections
- Evaluate tumors or abnormal growths
